The Syrian Army has gained control of a strategic district in the suburb of the capital Damascus following heavy clashes with foreign backed militant groups.

According to Al-Alam, the army troops units have attacked the stronghold of militants in the strategic neighborhood of al-Tazamen, killing many of the militants and forcing many others out of the town.

Al-Tazamen neighborhood is located near Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp and most western backed media are covering the related news subjectively to show that militant groups have the thorough control over the area.
